Redness Remedy actually worsened the condition.
Unfortunately, this Redness Remedy product did not work for me, and I gave it fair shot, too, but at the end of the day, it was a big hit and a miss. It made my face look sickly, jaundiced and a bit ashen all at the same time, even after proper application. It made for one terribly long day at work recently, with people expressing their concerns for my health. Having said all of this and acknowledging the other reviews, it has been and probably will continue to be helpful for many. If you are tempted to try it, please do. Do not let my opinion and personal experience deter you, as with anything, it will work for some and not for others. I am glad I tried it though ... because now I know.

The BEST Product Yet
I've had redness around my nose and chin forever. Tried everything then I found Redness Remedy! This is so lightweight, don't need much, and it really covers the red. After about a week of use I noticed the redness is fading. Purchased some for my sister who has it worse than I do and now she is hooked too. I've been using nothing but Bare Minerals for the past 3 months and my husband told me last night that my skin looks so pretty and younger.

New User, Sold for Life
I may be jumping the gun a bit here, because I've only been using this product for little over a week, but that's just evidence of how quickly it works! I have struggled with rosacea my entire life, and have never been able to find a product that lessens redness while I'm actually out and about doing things. Plenty of products work at night, and when I wake up in the morning, but the minute I walk outside BAM, red again. Not this. Redness Remedy works all day, and continuously helps my skin to improve.
I have never been able to go out in public without wearing some form of foundation, but this week I almost walked out of the house without it, because when I looked in the mirror I thought I was wearing some! Even after exfoliating my face in a hot shower, my skin is not nearly as red as it used to be. I really cannot say enough good things about this product, I really hope it continues until I can feel secure enough just to put on sunscreen and go to the pool.
During the day, I apply Redness Remedy after cleansing my skin. I let it sit for a bit, then put on primer. After primer, I retouch around my nose (where the worst redness is), and a little on my cheeks and chin if I think I need it. Then I put on foundation. At night, almost the same thing. I cleanse my skin, I put on Redness Remedy. Now because I don't have to look too particularly nice, I put on a little extra.
The only con I have about this product is how yellow it is. The more you apply, the yellower it gets. Like I mentioned earlier, it's fine at night because no one is going to look at me and say "are you sick? your skin looks off..." but during the day I can only apply so much before I start looking sallow. This might also be due to the fact that I have porcelain skin (beneath all the rosacea and freckles), and not be a big deal for people with darker skin tones. Either way I really encourage people to try out this product!

If you have rosacea you need to try
I was recently diagnosed with severe rosacea at 35. My face was a complete mess. Not only was it red but I also had pustules/cystic issues. I started a prescription cream that was helping somewhat, but thought I would give this product a try as well. I never write reviews but am hoping to help out others with rosacea since it is such an awful chronic disorder.
Literally after using this product for only 1 day I noticed a difference in my skin texture and redness. The bumps started to dissipate and I was able to use less foundation (I was caking it on before). I am very pale (wear fairly light in ready and fair in the loose powder) and I don't think that this makes me look yellow like others mentioned in reviews.
I am so thankful for bare minerals since it is the only line my skin will tolerate. Thank you so much for making this redness solution product. Try it-you won't be disappointed.

# 1 Essential Bare Minerals Product
I absolutely love my Redness Remedy! I have sensitive skin and have always suffered from a red complexion. I started using this and couldn't believe the results. Its so effective and I only use it once a day! The feeling of being able to wake up, look in the mirror and see no redness gives me so much confidence- I stopped wearing foundation! It makes me feel naturally beautiful, just the way I should feel. Now I can go out with confidence and I don't have to spend so much time applying makeup anymore! This product is life-changing for me. I have never been dissatisfied with any of their products. Thank you Bare Minerals!

Excellent product.
I have bright rosy red cheeks; they're not even pink. I have redness throughout the rest of my face at times, but my cheeks are always red. This product works perfectly as a concealer. I use far less foundation, and have a better finish with less effort. I also use this at night after moisturizing. I notice that it helps reduce my redness quickly so I feel like it does more than just correct the appearance of my skin. I have only used this for a few weeks now so I'm not sure how long term the effects will be.

my redness relief
I am enjoying this product as a way to pamper myself, the application brush is to die for, as well as looking to reduce the redness in my skin. I am seeing moderate results but to be fair I have only been applying it less than two weeks. I will check back to update.

so far not what I was promised!
When I bought this product I was only going in to buy the neutralizing primer when the clerk recommended this product. He said it would cover my redness during the day and after 4 weeks I should permanently see my redness disappearing. It has only been 3 week but so far my redness has NOT PERMANENTLY disappeared or improved some how. It does work great to cover during the day, but I was looking for something that would fix the problem not just cover it.

Finally!
I have a small red scar on my cheek from stitches and this helps with the redness. It also doesn't irritate my skin. Absolutely love it.

Fixed me!!
Finally I found something to make my face stop burning and not react to the environment (perfumes, dust, etc...)! Please don't stop making this!!!!

I don't have redness but wanted a double-ended countour angled brush, and this looks perfect! If not, would this product harm my face if I do use it (would it even be suggested for my skin type if its considered normal) and don't suffer from redness?

Answers

A:

If all you want is the brush, go to an outlet mall and see if they can help you find what you're looking for. As far as I'm concerned (as someone with a life long struggle with rosacea), this is a fantastic product, and I doubt it would harm your skin, but there is a chance you might not be happy with it considering you don't need it.

It's like if I were to buy a super hydrating moisturizer for my already oily skin. I'm sure the product is fantastic for some people, but it's not for me, and I would not be happy with the results, simply because it doesn't fit my needs.

Go to a store or talk to a rep, and see if they can't help you find what you want with something you need.

Bare Minerals is for EVERYONE. I have some redness, and fairly clear skin, but also a few problem areas (which are so much better now, thanks to BE). You can order any of the brushes, or go on down to your local BE Boutique and pick one out in person. Though if you're looking for a switch in foundation, I highly recommend this line.

The brush included is not angled. It is more like the flawless application brush, but perhaps with a little more coverage. If you don't suffer from redness, I think you would be better off looking at the full line of Bare Minerals face brushes; there are angled brushes there.

It does both. The tint of the powder will help reduce redness in the short term. (I apply after primer, before foundation). This product works best in the long run. Instructions say to apply in the morning and evening. It is a treatment that is intended to be used over time to reduce redness. This treatment has helped me decrease the amount of foundation I need,

I have been using it and it is not a lightener. It actually heals the redness and with the titanium dioxide, it protects from all the environmental things like the cold, heat and sun that irritate and inflame this kind of skin condition. This product is natural and I would recommend it in a heart beat. The price is right and I have had incredible results with it. Hope that helps!

I have rosacea and I've noticed a huge difference in my skin. The redness has calmed down so much after only one week of use. I use it everyday, morning and night, after I cleanse and moisturize. I can't wait to see what it does with continued use. Rosacea is so different for everyone. Products that work for one person don't always work for another. It's definitely worth a try even if you dont have rosacea. I love this product.

It doesn't just cover up pimples, it actually makes them go away. If you can use it early enough where you feel a pimple coming, but don't see it yet, it can actually even prevent it from turning into a full pimple. It works really really well, I love it. It doesn't actually cover up pimples all that well though, i usually use my regular Bare Minerals foundation as a concealer, I find that works better.

Bare Escentuals are a natural product and the ingredients are active so they're always working with your skin versus against it so for that reason alone is where the price of the product is set the way it is. If you think about it, the brush that comes with the Redness Remedy is probably worth the price of the redness remedy with the brush. So instead of almost 60 dollars, they're setting the price to $27. It's like getting the remedy for redness and getting the brush, which has a dual use to it, for free. It's nice because the extra brushes you have you could always use as a backup brush for your redness remedy powder, or for mineral veil which requires a sheer coverage of it or even let a friend use it to inspire them to use Bare Minerals just based on the natural qualities of the brush itself.

If all else fails you can contact a BE rep and see what they may suggest you can do to help.

Yes, if you naturally have a red complexion, blushing and drinking alcohol make your face appear even more red. But over time the Redness Remedy will reduce the redness so your face won't appear to be as red during those situations.

BE helps with redness, but as far as blushing, I would probably use the Radiance colors or the Redness Remedy. You may come out cheaper just putting put more coverage of foundation if usually you use light to medium coverage of foundation.

I use this product every day under my makeup when I notice redness or I know I will probably have redness issues such as being in a warm environment or when I know I'm going to imbibe in alcohol. I just apply sparingly and it helps warm up my complexion without looking over done.

The product's yellowish color tones down redness, so I think you could just use it when you feel you need it. I personally like to use it every day, but my skin is always pretty red across my nose and cheeks. You sound like your skin is MUCH better than mine. Don't be afraid to experiment a little. I'm sure you will figure out what works best for you after a week or two.

As I always have redness no matter what, I would suggest not using the product if there is no redness. However, if later in the day, the redness becomes visible, you might want to wear it all the time.

I know that the old formula worked well. I would apply it daily until no redness showed, then stop for three to four weeks. I never broke out during that time. Then I would continue to use it once a week. I haven't seen blemishes or breakouts yet. As for the new formula, I just started to test it, but I know that when they changed their formulas for other products, they turned out great, so we'll see.

When I went to the boutique near me the person who I had worked with my last visit to the store had me apply the primer before she applied the redness remedy. The way I do it is I first clense and mosturize my face. Once the mosturizer is absorbed I then put on the primer. After the primer I apply the redness remedy. Once I'm done buffing on the redness remedy I then start my foundation.

I was told at the Bare Escentuals store that the order goes:1.Primer2.Founation3.Redness Remedy-apply it with that neat little brush that came with it4.Foundation (not heavy, just to smooth everything out)

Dear slamb,After cleansing and moisturizing, I apply Prime Time Foundation Primer. Then I use the Redness Remedy. Following that I put on the Foundation (Fairly Light in my case). I following with just a bit of Clear Radiance. Viola!This is what works for me, and I hope this information helps you.Lsfischer

The instructions with the product say to use if after cleansing and moisturizing, so I think it should be used after the night treatment. It is a powder, like the original foundation, so it makes sense to use it after liquids or creams.

Dear Texas,The Redness Remedy is for application at the time one makes up before beginning the day. As far as I know, this is not the type of product that reduces redness over time,so it its effects are not enhanced in any way by wearing it at night.

i think it is great during the day- it can practically replace your concealer. i also use it sparing at night- and is a sly way to cover your blemishes overnight and be pretty but not look or feel like you're sleeping in makeup.

I also wear Mineral Veil under my foundation to control that oily look. I have tried using Mineral Veil and then Redness Remedy and vice versa. Both methods work, but I like using the Redness Remedy first just a little better. Then brush on a little foundation and your other products and you're ready to go!

Dear ChrisH,I don't have any problem with oiliness myself, but BE has a product called Prime Time Foundation Primer for oily Skin. I use the regular version of Prime Time, and then use the Reness Remedy. After that I apply the Foundation and Clear Radiance. Some time ago, I also used Mineral Veil both before and after the Foundation, but with the products I'm using now I find I don't need it. But the Prime Time Foundation Primer for Oily Skin might be just the thing for you.Hope this helps.Lsfischer

Since you have oily skin I would suggest trying the Prime Time Oil Control. It absorbs oil like you wouldn't believe! I get very oil skin from time to time myself I switch back & forth from regular Prime Time to Oil Control.

Other than that theres a few things you can do in regards to the Redness Remedy.Make sure your cleansing with a good facial cleanser made for your skin type before makeup application.Use a oil free moisturizer. Let you skin relax for a few minutes before you move on to makeup.Use the BE Prime Time Oil Control & let absorb into your skin. You can use the Mineral Veil now to set the primer but I think you'll be fine with out it if you use the Oil Control primer. Try it both ways & see what works best but the Redness Remedy will stick to the primer better if you dont use the Mineral Veil first.Now use the Redness Remedy. I switch back & forth between the Maximum Concealer brush & the brush provided in the kit. Just like any BE product make sure your buffing it well in to your skin. As with all other BE products I warm it up before applying to the skin by swirling it in the cap. This both warms up the product & also gets it worked into the brush bristles to ensure even coverage.Since somedays Im more or less red, I start off light & build up to the coverage I want.Then I use a the Bisque or just my foundation.On bad redness days, after I apply my foundation before I set with Mineral Veil, I go back over the red areas with the Redness Remedy & the Maximum concealer brush but when I do this I use a very light hand & minimal product.Now use Mineral Veil to set.

Best advice I can give is try it different ways & see what works best for you. But definitely try the Oil Control primer. It was a GOD SEND for me when it came out!

If you use any kind of moisterizer apply after that. Make sure you do use moisterizer it will keep your skin from producing more oil because you are drying it out. Bare Minerals moisterizer is great. I have a very oily T-zone and sensative skin and it works great for me.

Like you, I also used other Bare Minerals products to cover the redness. This product is different in that it helps to CALM your skin and FADE the redness. I use it at night after washing and moisturizing, AND UNDER my foundation during the day. My redness has visibly diminished. Also, I found that the amount of foundation I needed to use really lessened, because the redness was covered more effectively with less of the Redness Remedy product than the amount of foundation I previously had to use in order to achieve the same redness coverage. My makeup looks lighter and more natural as a result. I love my Bare Minerals makeup and will never stop using it. However, when it comes to redness issues, this product covers MUCH more effectively AND takes the redness away. I am so happy I tried it!!

Redness Remedy is for those who are having that severe redness to their skin. If you find that the mineral foundation is doing fine for you, then stick to that and you will be fine. The Redness Remedy can be used alone for redness coverage while giving you a flawless look at the same time or you can use it over your makeup for touch ups through the day. You don't have to get the Redness Remedy...it's just an alternative product to use.

Check out md formulations for facial products that can help your redness for those days that you don't want or need to wear makeup and perhaps you can focus more on your skin ailments. For example you may wear makeup to work or to a social event. But on the weekends that's your time to relax, so you remove all the makeup from your face and allow your face to breath which is always a great idea. Use this "off day" from makeup to focus on using the BE products from md formulations to help with your redness.

I have Golden Dark skin, I have combo skin and it's sensitive. BE products has helped even out my skin tone and has bettered my skin. I have depression, obesity, a two year old and dark circles under my eyes from lack of sleep since I have to be to work at 4:30am three days a week...and I'm 26. Plus I try to swim three times a week doing 500 meter swims in less than a half hour. So my overall self has been helped from just makeup. I hope BE products continue to help you the way it has helped me!

If your BE mineral foundation covers the redness, then by all means, do not buy this. The Redness Relief product was made for people with rosacea who find the regular BE foundation does not cover all the redness.

The mineral foundation covers the redness well but this covers it better and it also has lasting results. Since I began to use this 2 weeks ago, the redness that I have had for years has lessened and I am using 1/2 as much foundation. I use it under my makeup like a concealer and then before bedtime to take advantage of the long term benefits. Give it a try.

yes Bare Minerals does cover the red, however this treats the red. After 1 week I have no redness and broken capalaries have significantly deminiished. So if you treat the redness you use less foundation and we all know less is more....
